Description
I love dishes that taste like they were a lot more trouble to make than they really are. Artichoke hearts and fresh basil make this nice enough to put in front of guests but minimal prepwork means its on the table in half an hour so you can give it to your family on a busy night when opening cans sounds attractive. It holds well too for those days when everyone is on his/her own schedule.
